Remark: The parent and clones in split sets DO NOT include BIOS or DEVICE files - they are separate files within the set (An example would be 100lions (No BIOS in the parent) and Galaga (No device file in the parent) - This is per MAME designĪ merged set takes the parent set and one or more clone sets and puts them all inside the parent set’s storage. The clone sets can’t operate without their parent set. This saves some space, but isn’t quite as efficient as a merged set. These files can (also) be used to build ROMs, CHDs and samples with a ROM Manager, for the more experienced builders.ĭatfile: (dir2dat): MAME 0.78 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)ĭatfile (dir2dat): MAME 0.94 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)ĭatfile (dir2dat): MAME 0.106 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)ĭatfile (dir2dat): MAME 0.139 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)ĭatfile (dir2dat): MAME 0.160 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)ĭatfile (dir2dat): MAME 0.174 CHDs (merged) (dir2dat)Ī split set is one where the parent set contains all of the normal data it should, and the clone sets contain only what has changed as compared to the parent set. The listinfo and listxml files included contain the original raw -listroms and -listxml output of the MAME binaries. Sound samples can be built using the “Mame Reference Set Samples” set with a ROM Manager, the datfile and the guide linked to the sets. using the dir2dat datfile for CHDs ensures building the correct CHD (v3, v4, v5) version.


ROMs (non-merged) sets can be built using the recent “MAME ROMs (merged)” and “MAME Rollback ROMs” source sets with a ROM Manager, the (non-merged) datfile and the guide linked to the sets.ĬHDs (merged) sets can be built using the recent “MAME CHDs (merged)” and “MAME Rollback CHDs” source sets with a ROM Manager, the (merged) dir2dat datfile and the dir2dat guide linked to the sets.
